The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 130 The Arrogant Soldier's Plan

The land of Jingzhou has been at peace for a long time. Since Liu Biao entered Jingzhou, there has been almost no war except for Sun Jian's attack on Jiangxia.

The continuous years of peace have made the people of Jingzhou very disturbed when they saw the mobilization of such a large army. There are many people in Jingzhou who fled from the war in the north.

After all, it is very difficult to find a safe place without war in the troubled times. The people just want to live a peaceful life with enough food and clothing, and then get a daughter-in-law.

In the troubled times of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, even this most basic hope turned into extravagant hopes due to the ambitions of the princes!
The natural danger of the Yangtze River in Jingzhou has always been in Liu Biao's hands, and the entire middle reaches of the Yangtze River runs through Nanjun and Jiangxia counties.

From the Nanjun and Jiangxia armies going south to attack Wuling and Changsha respectively, they only had to cross the Yangtze River and there were almost no natural dangers in the vast plains.

This is also the history of Zhou Yu's several attacks on Nanjun. The stalemate lasted for a year. Zhou Yu himself took an arrow before conquering Nanjun.

However, Liu Bei easily captured the four counties in Jingnan, the reason why the two sides are completely unequal!

South County is surrounded by the Han River, the Yangtze River in the south, and the two fortified cities of Xiangyang and Fancheng.

Don’t be fooled by a certain game map. The northern part of Wuling is not bordered by the Yangtze River at all, and the middle part of the Yangtze River flows through Nanjun. From Nanjun, go south to the Yangtze River and then go down the land to reach Wuling County.

In the same Changsha County, there is a small section in the north of the Yangtze River, and a larger part of the Yangtze River passes through Jiangxia County, that is, from the Yangtze River in Jiangxia Fudi all the way to the south, you can reach Changsha.

Zhou Yu had no choice but to send Cheng Pu and Han Dang to the north to garrison Xiaoling County (this name is not familiar to everyone. Historically, it was renamed Public Security Bureau by Liu Bei more than ten years later). This place is considered as the handover between Wuling County and Nan County, connecting Han and Shanghai to the east, and Bashu to the west. Controlling Hunan and Guangdong in the south and connecting Shaanxi and Henan in the north, it has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.

Zhou Yu himself led Huang Gai, Sun He and others to the north to garrison Zuotang City. This unknown place, but a hundred miles east of Zuotang, is the famous Huarong!
But in history, there is no Guan Yu to release Cao Cao, and there is no Cao Cao to lose Huarong Road, but this place is indeed a very dangerous place!

There is a valley road in Huarong, and an official road in the middle. The left and right sides are raised several feet high and low, which is an excellent place to ambush.

After Zhou Yu personally surveyed the terrain in Huarong, he thought about it a little and came up with a strategy to retreat from the enemy!
Going south from Nanjun, there are only two roads, namely Xiaoling and Tangzuo.

Four generals Cai Mao, Wenpin, Wang Wei, and Zhang Yun led an army of [-] to attack Wuling. They first went down the Yangtze River and looked from the boats of the Navy Building. Han Daqi looked like he was ready for battle.

After thinking for a while, Cai Mao ordered the water army to move down from the Yangtze River to Dongting Lake. There are plenty of places where they can land, so why bother to touch Jiancheng?

The army landed in an evenly spaced place at Dongting Lake, and within a few tens of miles of marching, they saw Zhou Yu lined up neatly, and the two sides fought fiercely.

In an encounter, it was Zhou Yu who retreated first. Zhou Yu fled westward after leaving hundreds of dead bodies behind.

It is inevitable that Cai Mao won a small victory, but Zhou Yu felt that way, and during the battle, Sun Cejun's combat power also made Cai Mao feel mediocre.

But Cai Mao was still very cautious and did not take advantage of the victory to pursue. Instead, he took every step of the way, showing a steady and steady state.

Cai Mao led the army more than ten miles forward, and found that Zhou Yu actually had a stronghold underground, blocking the road ahead. Cai Mao ordered Wenpin to lead [-] troops to attack the military stronghold.

Although the military stronghold defended stubbornly in the early days, Wenpin suffered a lot of casualties, but after Wenpin hired hundreds of people to clear the antlers and reject the horse formation, he went all the way to the camp.

On the contrary, Wenpin found that Zhou Yu's army in the camp was defeated and fled. Such an abnormal state made Wenpin feel that something was wrong!

Cai Hao saw that Wenpin had conquered Dazhai in just half a day. He was very proud and laughed. He said to Wenpin, Wang Wei and others: "I thought Sun Ce was so great, but today it seems that he is just like this. No wonder he was beaten by Lu Heng." The children are fighting back and forth!"

Wenpin admonished Cai Mao: "Degui, although Zhou Yu's army did not collapse in the last encounter and this attack, at every critical moment, Zhou Yu's army was defeated and fled, fearing that it was Zhou Yu's arrogant soldiers. Of the policy!"

Wenpin's words were like a basin of cold water, which wiped out Cai Mao's swollen complacency, and Cai Mao gave a cold snort and ordered to move on.

The next few days were uneventful, with not even a night attack. Even so, Wenpin carefully arranged defensive facilities every time he set up camp, and sent many patrols, scouts, etc.

After entering the border of Huarong, suddenly there was a fork in the official road. When the former army commander asked Cai Mao which way to take.

Cai Mao called Wenpin, Zhang Yun and Wang Wei together and said with a smile: "Although the Huarong Trail is close, the terrain is dangerous. Although the Guandao Continent needs to march for a few days, the road is evenly divided without any dangerous places!

The old man expected Zhou Yu to ambush me on the main road, haha"

Wang Wei was a warrior, so he interjected without any thought, "Then our army will take the path!"

Cai Mao said: "No, no, no, let's take the high road and order the three armies to advance vigilantly. I will defeat Zhou Yu again in Huarong!"

When Liu Biao's army was driving on Huarong Avenue, in a narrow forest, as expected, soldiers ambushed and attacked Cai Mao's army!
An ambush was turned into a confrontation. Zhou Yu personally led the team and retreated, leaving many corpses behind.

This time Cai Mao didn't just accept it as he saw it last time, but let Wang Wei lead the team to chase him all the way. After chasing for nearly a hundred miles, he stopped and handed over orders to Cai Mao!
Cai Hao laughed loudly and said to Wang Wei, Zhang Yun and Wen Pin: "Zhou Yu is still too young, and I can control every move of this old man!"

If Lu Heng was here, he would beat Zhou Yu three times in a row, and the alarm would definitely ring in his mind!This is where the next set begins!
It's a pity that Cai Mao is now very confident and feels that he is very experienced and has first-class ability in leading troops. Before the Battle of Chibi, Zhou Yu only excelled within Sun Ce's army and had no achievements to spread to the world.

In other words, you also attribute the credit to Sun Ce!
Yes, Cai Mao, who had won three games, began to float.

Although Wenpin was a good general, it can be seen that Wang Wei's pursuit of Zhou Yu was indeed a real defeat. The team was loose and chaotic, and it did not seem to be orderly to lure the enemy deep.

So Wenpin didn't say much. Wenpin, who had already disgraced Cai Mao once, did not choose to dissuade him this time. Cai Mao's power in Jingzhou was only lower than that of Liu Biao!
Offending Cai Mao for no reason, Wen Pin also felt that the gain outweighed the loss, but he was secretly careful.

After passing Huarong, Zhou Yu played like crazy and played against Cai Mao consecutively, but was defeated by Cai Mao every time, losing eight battles in a row!
Cai Mao's proud expression was completely written on his face. He felt that Zhou Yu was only a child and didn't know how to lead troops at all, and he felt that Wuling could win in a single battle.
